Welcome back. Just a moment while we sign you in to your Goodreads account.
I'm looking for reviews for a first-in-series crime thriller.
Title: Kill Shot
Series: The Fighting Detective
Blurb: When only one brand of justice will do...
A body found in the mangroves, mutilated beyond recognition.
What at first appears to be a crocodile attack is soon established as a shocking murder.
Can ex-boxer Detective Sergeant Jack Lisbon solve the mystery before the sleepy town of Yorkville goes into total meltdown?
When a popular MMA fighter disappears, police now face a possible double homicide. The list of suspects grows longer, but no one in the closed fighting community is talking.
Join DS Lisbon and his partner Detective Claudia Taylor on a heart-thumping ride through the steamy tropics of Northern Australia as they hunt for a killer out of control.
Background: Detective Sergeant Jack Lisbon has a dirty secret. One that must never get out.
Told to leave the London Metropolitan Police before he gets fired, Jack emigrates Down Under to resurrect his fading career in the Queensland Police Service. Jack soon finds out the tropical northern town of Yorkville harbors villains just as cunning and nasty as the ones on his South London patch.
Hot-tempered and quick to react with fists that hit like sledge hammers, ex-boxer DS Lisbon is constantly battling his inner demons, trying to do what's right instead of what feels good. Luckily for him, level-headed partner Detective Constable Claudia Taylor is on hand to stop Jack from crossing the line. Most of the time, she succeeds.
Jack's dream is one day to be reunited with his young daughter Skye, who he had to leave behind in England with his ex-wife, Sarah. She's still fuming at Jack for his act of gross misconduct that forced him to abandon her and Skye.
One thing you can be sure of. Jack Lisbon will never take a backward step.
Recommended for readers who enjoy thrillers by Lee Child and Ian Rankin.
